Norco is a 2022 point-and-click adventure game developed by Geography of Robots and published by Raw Fury. Set in a dystopian, futuristic version of Norco, Louisiana, it follows Kay, a woman who has returned home after her estranged mother's death. While searching for her missing brother, she becomes entangled in the mystery of her mother's investigations.[2]
Norco developed out of a multimedia documentary project about the landscape of Louisiana after Hurricane Katrina, and was eventually expanded into a full game. The game was released for macOS and Windows in May 2022 and for PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X/S in November 2022. Norco received positive reviews, with praise directed towards its art, writing and worldbuilding. It was nominated for several awards and won the Long Form Award at A MAZE. / Berlin.
